Chattanooga, July 5th
   Once again we have abandoned Middle Tennessee and North Alabama to the ravages of the infidel Abolitionists ***** Our army is at Bridgeport, upon the north bank of the Tennessee. All the rolling stock of the Memphis & Charleston road at Huntsville, and the Decatur & Nashville road, running to Pulaski and Columbia, has been safely removed, through the energy of the indomitable Col. Sam Tate. The rolling stock and other property on the Nashville & Chattanooga road, though the last train did not leave Shelbyville until the enemy entered that town, was also brought out by the skill and enterprise of its worthy Superintendent, E. W. Cole.
